Playstation boss is feeling good about the PS4

FORTUNE -- The battle between a new generation of video game consoles is, in reality, still months away. Consumers won't be choosing between Microsoft's Xbox One and Sony's Playstation 4 until later this fall, when both devices become available. But the contest between the two has already heated up online, as the details of both devices have come out. Microsoft's media-friendly box will cost $499, while Sony's game-oriented machine will cost $399. Fortune caught up with Jack Tretton, president and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment America, to talk about how the company sees its position going into another round for dominance in the $78 billion games market. A lightly edited transcript follows:

CNN is so full of it that they "hide" a "5 reasons the Xbox One will dominate" article between the interview. Best quote from the interview "Never try to shove something down a consumer's throat that they don't have an appetite for"

When they pay attention to the fans and the core, they get good in return. Us gamers, we're the consumers, we're the ones opening up our wallets and buying these products. Sony knows they did good by listening to us, they're giving gamers and the developers what they want. And as a gamer, I feel good for the future of gaming, especially for the PS4. And hopes that they still keep listening to what we have to say in the future after launch day.
